Clint Eastwood on American Sniper Critics: They’re Right!

Well, this is unexpected. In case you’re somehow unaware, the new Clint Eastwood-Bradley Cooper film American Sniper is a massive hit with audiences, but its also drawn a good deal of criticism, in part because large portions of Chris Kyle’s memoirs – on which the film was based – are believed to be fabricated. Michael Moore referred to snipers as cowards and is still subjected to daily Twitter hate as a result. Seth Rogen compared the film to Nazi propaganda and the actor received swift and immediate backlash. Eastwood has been largely silent on the subject, so it was somewhat surprising when he decided to offer his two cents to a TMZ cameraman last night. It’s really surprising when you hear what he had to say: Clint Eastwood Talks American Sniper Yes, Squinty Clint seems to agree with those who have claimed that the film is not without its problematic elements. It’s possible that Eastwood just misunderstood the question, but it’s equally possible that he meant what he said, and that his film is being used to support political ideologies with which he doesn’t agree. Anyone who’s seen at the RNC knows that Clint is a card-carrying Republican, but he’s generally moderate and often left-leaning in his politics. Eastwood has been openly critical of the wars in both Iraq and Afghanistan, and though he’s clearly a supporter of the troops, it’s not surprising that he might object to some warhawks finding a message in Sniper that’s not really there. Or, it could be that he acknowledges that Kyle made some questionable claims in his autobiography and you’re not necessarily disparaging an American hero if you point out that Kyle didn’t really snipe looters after Katrina or beat up Governor Jesse Ventura. Or maybe Clint’s just defending the right of his critics to openly express their thoughts on his film. After all, Clint is pretty much the quintessential American, and what’s more American than freedom of speech? Then again, this is the same  Eastwood that threatened to kill Michael Moore , so there might be something to that “didn’t understand the question” theory. Debut Roles of 2015 Oscar Nominees 1.

Brian Williams Announces Leave of Absence from NBC Nightly News

So much for the NBC Nightly News… with Brian Williams . In the wake of a controversy over how he misled viewers regarding an incident in the Iraq War, the anchor announced on Saturday that he’s taking a leave of absence from his post. “In the midst of a career spent covering and consuming news, it has become painfully apparent to me that I am presently too much a part of the news, due to my actions,” Williams said via statement. He added: “As Managing Editor of NBC Nightly News, I have decided to take myself off of my daily broadcast for the next several days, and Lester Holt has kindly agreed to sit in for me to allow us to adequately deal with this issue. “Upon my return, I will continue my career-long effort to be worthy of the trust of those who place their trust in us.” The scandal surrounding Williams began during a January 30 broadcast,, when he erroneously claimed his helicopter was hit by a grenade in March 2003 as he covered the Iraq War. Williams apologized on air last Wednesday. Since then, the network has opened an internal investigation into his coverage of the war and other major events, including Hurricane Katrina. Many have called for Williams to be fired as a result of this lie, despite how attractive his daughter is and despite his ability to rap classic singles . “We have a team dedicated to gathering the facts to help us make sense of all that has transpired,” NBC News President Deborah Turness said in a memo on Friday. 17 Lip Dubs We Loves 1.

Lena Dunham: Why’s Everybody Always Picking On Me?!

Even if you watch Girls online with you finger on the pause button so you can jot down all of Hannah’s profound observations about relationships, gender equality, and dessert, you probably occasionally find Lena Dunham obnoxious. She’s naked all the time for seemingly no reason; she complains constantly despite being born into a life of obscene wealth and privilege; and she once called Amanda Bynes a “genius.” There’s a lot not to like…and Lena is apparently very aware of that: “I totally leave room for people to be irritated by me,” Dunham said in a recent interview with The Daily Beast. “They were irritated by me from 2nd through 12th grade. I know the feeling dearly.” “I said to my boyfriend once at a very low moment, ‘This isn’t that different from 2nd grade! People have always been trying to pick on me! Always!” Wow. All this time we thought Lena was intentionally trolling the world so that she could position herself as the victim whenever anyone criticized her. How else to explain the green hair and other ridiculous life choices? Now we see that it wasn’t intentional and Lena is just naturally self-obsessed and annoying. We were right about the positioning herself as the victim, though. That’s totally her jam. 29 WTF Quotes From Lena Dunham’s New Book When I was nine, I wrote a vow of celibacy on a piece of paper and ate it. Permalink: Mmm. Delish Added: October 01, 2014 1. Mmm.

Gerry Hamilton, ESPN Analyst, Tweets Porn Link Instead of Scouting Report

ESPN recruiting analyst Gerry Hamilton is in hot water (emphasis on HOT!) after he directed Twitter followers to something a little off topic this week. While offering an update on ESPN’s 29th ranked football recruit in the country, Roquan Smith, Hamilton accidentally tweeted out a link to … a porn site. Hamilton’s instantly infamous Tweet, which was supposed to be about Smith’s visits to several of the big football schools courting his services, read: “#ESPN300 No. 29 Roquan Smith schedules Texas A&M OV Jan. 23. #UCLA Jan. 30. Already visited #UGA & #Michigan. #Gigem pornhub.com/view_video.php…” The college sports expert seemingly meant to link to the Montezuma, Ga., player’s highlight video, but clearly posted a link to a different video altogether. The analyst then corrected his error and posted the same tweet, only with a link to Smith highlights on ESPN’s site. But many of his followers noticed. Some were even disappointed he took down the original . Hamilton was quickly bombarded with comedic tweets like, “Can you send us that porn hub link again?” and “Are you sure that wasn’t the correct link?” Amusingly and accurately, more than a few fans noted that in order to paste the porn link, Hamilton had to have previously copied it from somewhere. In other words, he was clearly watching PornHub, and either copied that URL instead of the ESPN one, or had previously sent the PornHub link to someone else. Either way, let’s hear it for tabbed browsing! 15 Scandalous Sports Stories 1. LIAR! Lance Armstrong denied it and denied it, but he eventually came clean: yes, he cheated to win every Tour de France.

Veronica Partridge, Christian Blogger, Stops Wearing Leggings in Public Due to Men’s "Lustful" Thoughts

Veronica Partridge, a Christian wife, mom and blogger, has become a viral sensation thanks to a post she wrote about leggings, and why she stopped wearing them. As the debate over whether or not leggings or yoga pants are acceptable attire to wear (beyond working out, obviously) rages on, Veronica has made her choice. Her article explaining why has been shared tens of thousands of times on social media. Read the Oregon resident’s reasoning below and you’ll see why … “Was it possible my wearing leggings could cause a man, other than my husband, to think lustfully about my body?” she wrote in her viral blog post . “Sure, if a man wants to look, they are going to look, but why entice them?” “Is it possible that the thin, form-fitting yoga pants or leggings could make a married (or single) man look at a woman in a way he should only look at his wife?” It was at that moment, she says, when “I made a personal vow to myself and to my husband. I will no longer wear thin, form-fitting yoga pants or leggings in public.” “The only time I feel (for myself) it is acceptable … is if I am in the comfort of my own home or if I am wearing a shirt long enough to cover my rear end.” “I also want to set the best example of how to dress for my daughter.” “I want her to know,” Partridge writes, “her value is not in the way her body looks or how she dresses, but in the character and personality God has given her.” “I have been following the vow I made to myself for the past couple of weeks now and though it may be difficult to find an outfit at times, my conscience is clear.” “I feel I am honoring God and my husband in the way I dress.” Veronica Partridge Good Morning America Interview She says the “temptation associated with leggings” was confirmed by her friends and even her husband, whose honestly she took to heart in making this choice. Partridge insists she is not trying to tell others what to do, though. “I was never trying to start a movement or try to tell women how to dress,” she says. “I was just sharing my personal decision on my personal blog.” “Never did I expect this to go so viral,” Veronica added of the surprisingly polarizing post. “If I knew it was going to, I would have never posted it.” What do you think? Are leggings acceptable as pants or should more people follow Patridge’s lead? Is Veronica’s decision admirable, or self-righteous? If you’re a woman, do you wear them in public? If you do, have you ever given any thought to how men might look at you, and does that influence you? If you’re a man, are you more likely to think lustful thoughts about women who aren’t your wife or girlfriend when they’re wearing such an ensemble? Hit the comments below to discuss … 17 Controversial Articles of Clothing 1. Yoga Pants and/or Leggings Yoga pants during yoga? Obviously appropriate? Leggings under a long sweater or jacket? Ditto. But they’ve become a near-constant substitute for regular pants for many women going about their daily lives, which has resulted in much debate.

Permed Up Al Raises Hell Over Oscar Nominations, “It’s Apallingly Insulting… In The Time Of Ferguson”

Al Sharpton is raising hell over the whiteout at this years Academy Awards. He’s right, but for some reason we feel like he’s just setting himself up for another check . Via NY Daily News reports: The Rev. Al Sharpton thinks the Oscars should be nominated for a prize itself: worst display of diversity in a major awards ceremony. The outspoken civil rights activist said Thursday that it was “appallingly insulting in the year of 2015″ that the 20 Academy Awards acting nominations went only to white actors and actresses. “In the time of Staten Island and Ferguson, to have one of the most shutout Oscar nights in recent memory is something that is incongruous,” Sharpton told The News. The list of Oscar nominations, announced early Thursday morning, was bashed for the lack of diversity in most major categories. The slate marked only the second time since 2000 that no black actors or actresses were nominated. Among the most notable snubs was David Oyelowo, who was widely praised for his portrayal as the late Rev. Martin Luther King Jr. in “Selma,” but was not nominated in the best actor category, and Ava DuVernay, who directed the same movie, but was not nominated for best director. DuVernay would have made history by having been the first African-American woman nominated in the category. Sharpton, who says he’ll meet next week with allies and colleagues to discuss “potential actions” before or during the nationally televised Feb. 22 award ceremony, was quick to point out the irony of the “Selma” double-snub. “The only category we’re well represented is in the best picture nomination and it’s a movie about blacks being shut out of society,” he said, noting that the film was nominated for the night’s highest honor. “And now we’re shut out of Hollywood.” Slow clap for Permed Up Al. He’s absolutely right. Yes Ava Duvernay was deserving, as was David Oyelowo. So what are we gonna do now Al? Time for a March on Hollywood? What plan of action does he have as a Black leader? Who should we boycott? What would MLK do in this situation? WENN

Farrah Abraham Lip Injections: Can Botched Operation Be Fixed?!

While Farrah Abraham can only blame, or congratulate, herself for almost all of the issues in her oft-controversial life, we actually feel bad for her in this case. The photos of Farrah Abraham’s botched lip injections above tell you all you need to know. Wow. Girlfriend needs to find herself a new plastic surgeon. Speaking of which … it’s hard not to see a procedure so blatantly botched and not think of Dr. Terry Dubrow, star of the E! reality show called Botched . She even shouted out Dubrow and co-star Dr. Paul Nassif on Instagram, writing, “Girlfriends don’t say I didn’t warn ya! #BOTCHED California #ER #fixit.” Dr. Dubrow, of course, is married to The Real Housewives of Orange County cast member Heather Dubrow, and appears regularly on that series as well. He’s seen it all in his day, and something like what happened to Farrah Abraham is clearly prime fodder for the surgeon’s solo foray into reality TV fame. Terry hinted in an interview with the Daily Mail that he may have already been in contact with the Teen Mom star about this cosmetic surgical mishap. “We can’t talk about that,” Durbrow said, “but let’s assume that we may be involved with that at this point … that’s something she may need help with.” Drs. Dubrow and Nassif debuted the first season of their show, in which they fix Botched cosmetic procedures, in 2014. Season 2 returns in April. It makes you wonder if Farrah deliberately experienced this blunder with that in mind, although not even she would go that far for 15 minutes of fame. Probably not, right? We honestly wouldn’t put that past her completely. 27 Most Cringe-Worthy Farrah Abraham Pics 1. Farrah Abraham Vagina Costume Farrah Abraham dresses up like a vagina. You cannot make this stuff up. In any case, what the heck happened?! The 23-year-old says she researched the (unknown) doctor involved and decided the procedure was a safe bet. “She was wrong,” says an insider. “She says the doctors injected her with an anesthetic beforehand … and believes she had a MAJOR allergic reaction.” Abraham personally told her side of the story as such: “I was attempting to put in a lip implant, but while being relaxed by medication, the doctor used a method I was allergic to and I had a massive attack and went to [the ER].” “The hospital doctors let the other doctor know what he should not have done. I’m not on medicine for 5 days in order to clear up and heal my body from the attack.” “I never received the lip implant.” Goodness. Here’s hoping she can get this resolved, one way or the other, because these are among the most cringe-worthy of cringe-worthy Farrah photos.
